Hi,
I am completely new to LDAP and come from a Networking background rather than a programming one so bear with me. We are currently running Microsoft Site Server 3.0 with service pack 3. We have an E-commerce site that uses LDAP as its directory and a backend SQL 7.0 database. What we are trying to do is figure out a way in which we can print off a report of all our users in the Site Server database (LDAP) with all of their attributes such as email address, user created on, etc.. and then compare that to our SQL sales data with all of the companies that the users are linked to and see some sales stats. We are trying to get a marketing feel to whats going on in our e-commerce site. I know site server has some reporting features however we don't know how to use it and we are also trying to use Crystal Reports as our reporting tool. Site Server also has an issue with displaying more than a certain amount of users which we can't fix due to an imcompatibility with the MDAC version of Service Pack 4 (which would fix the issue) and our Proprietary E-sales component. Is there a an LDAP Query or some sort that I can run out side of this or is there a client program available that can take queries and then export them into a file or database? I have heard of Microsoft 2000 Server tool that will do this but I can't get the name of it or where to find it !
any help would be appreciated
Thanks
